Chapter 134 He Has a Knife



The aesthetics of the Dayong Dynasty are different from the aesthetics of the world where Chi Xingyue lives.

Color is more important here. The rich and powerful like jade with rich colors, and have no requirements for moisture and transparency.

Therefore, the full green bean variety is more expensive than the floating flower glass variety. The spring color variety is more expensive than the full green variety.

The ones with beautiful colors are all in places like Shangjing City and Jiangning Prefecture. Small towns like Yunrou can only play with transparent models that the powerful and wealthy don't want.

However, Chi Xingyue liked this kind of translucent jadeite, and she couldn't stop picking it out. She picked out 25 pieces straight away, which could be said to be a complete sweep of the jewelry store.

As for the price, it wasn't as expensive as one might imagine. Twenty-five bracelets, packed in a small-leaf red sandalwood box, only cost six hundred and sixty taels.

It was equivalent to a fortune that an ordinary family could not earn in several lifetimes. But in Chi Xingyue's hand, it was just a light silver note.

Chi Xingyue didn't count exactly how many banknotes were in the space, but what was certain was that it was enough for her to squander for a lifetime.

The two left the jewelry store under the attentive smile of the waiter. Chi Xingyue used the ox cart as a cover to store the two boxes of jewelry into the space.

Then she went to a cosmetics shop and picked out some nice rouge, powder and indigo as gifts, and then she and Ling Jiheng rushed to Qingshan Village.

The two of them spent more than a thousand taels of silver on this trip. Chi Xingyue was a little excited. She lifted the curtain and chatted with Ling Jiheng.

Suddenly, several masked men jumped out from the bushes and shouted, "Hand over the money!"

Chi Xingyue's mouth twitched, thinking to herself, she was really an accident. She had only spent a thousand taels of silver, and she was already being targeted.

Ling Jiheng frowned and reminded Chi Xingyue to enter the space when in danger. He then pulled out a long knife from under the car and confronted the robbers.

The robbers obviously didn't expect Ling Jiheng to be so skilled in physical training. In just a few minutes, they were lying in pieces.

Chi Xingyue took out a hemp rope from the car, and Ling Jiheng took it and tied the people into a rope.

They searched the robbers and took away their silver and weapons, and silenced them.

Holding the rope, he entered the county town again, ignoring the pointing and talking of passers-by on the road, and went straight to the county government office.

After explaining the situation to the county magistrate, he bought a few bags of peach cakes at the pastry shop to calm his nerves before returning with Chi Xingyue.

This time everything went much more smoothly. When they were near the village entrance, Chi Xingyue took out the wooden barrel containing rice and the box containing silver jewelry. He also put a basket of hawthorns, a jar of peach gum, and a dozen snow clams on the cart.

As for bird's nest, I thought about selling it, but it is not sold in Yunrou County at all.

Merchants who travel back and forth also deliver the good things directly to the major mansions, and they basically will not circulate on the market.

In order not to arouse suspicion from others, the two gave up this dangerous idea and decided to eat the bird's nest themselves and provide other supplements for their family.

The two did not go to the fields again, but went straight back to the Ling family mansion. Unexpectedly, all the members of the Ling family had returned.

After asking, I found out that he was too tired from working in the fields today. After just working for the whole morning, his back and legs were sore.

I persisted for an hour in the afternoon, but I couldn't take it anymore.

Song Lizheng said that they had never done farm work before and they needed a period of adaptation, so he asked them to come back and rest.

After the Ling family came back, none of them could even lift their arms.

Jinbao took the initiative to invite Doctor Cheng. Doctor Cheng joked with them, gave them some ointment, and taught the Ling family how to quickly relieve the pain.

"Hey, knead it like this, yes, press this acupuncture point..."

In this way, the Ling family pinched left and right, and when they felt that their hands and feet could move, they bent down and thanked Doctor Cheng.

Then I take a shower, comb my hair, change clothes, and eat. It feels quite busy.

Although the maids and servants in the house did not do farm work, their work was not easy either.

Cleaning the yard, rooms, washing clothes, boiling water, cooking. If the backyard work was not taken care of by Ling Yi and the others, the maids and servants would also have to feed the cows and pigs.

It would be possible to buy some more slaves, but no one could guarantee whether the people bought were reliable, so he suppressed these thoughts.

Chi Xingyue called Baozhu and Erzhu to help. The two of them unloaded the things from the car one by one and took them into the compartment.

That’s right, in just two days, the wing was divided into several single rooms.

The one on the far left is used as a warehouse and contains several shelves.

Erzhu put the things on the ox cart in it to avoid having to move them again when the workers came tomorrow.

Chi Xingyue divided the tonics, cosmetics, and indigo into several portions and sent them to the old lady, mother-in-law, and aunt.

Oh, and there are bracelets, one for each person.

Faced with Chi Xingyue's laziness and absenteeism, not only did they not mention it, they also felt sorry for her and asked her to go back and rest quickly.

Chi Xingyue nodded, went back to the house, took a shower, and went to bed without even eating.

There's nothing I can do. I'm exhausted both physically and mentally after this trip. Who would have thought that even in Youzhou, I'd still run into robbers?

If the two men hadn't been afraid of getting into trouble, these robbers would have been killed long ago.

However, it's almost the same as Ga.

After interrogation, the county magistrate discovered that these robbers were habitual criminals who specifically targeted wealthy people who were alone, and some even committed murders.

So they sent several robbers to Zhou's army, where they served, which was even more painful than death.

While on patrol, General Zhou noticed that the robbers' hands were tied with ropes quite skillfully, so he asked a few questions out of curiosity.

"You said the eight of you were knocked down by a young man?"

The robber didn't want to admit that he was not as skilled as the other man, so he made an excuse: "He has a knife!"

General Zhou chuckled and disagreed.

I thought that even if he had a knife, he was able to escape from a group of gangsters and bring them to justice, which showed that this person had good kung fu and courage.

I actually want to get to know each other.

However, Zhou's army has never been kind to prisoners.

General Zhou raised his hand and the robbers were taken away to mine.

From then on, there was darkness, and he worked day and night, and had two meals a day, without stopping until the end of his life.

Several people regretted their decision.

Of course, this is all later.

At this moment, Chi Xingyue fell into a deep sleep and didn't know that the space had changed again.

Of course, only a little bit.

A door appeared on the three steps, which was the gate of Nanshan Village Police Station.

But there is nothing behind the door, and if you are not careful, you will step on empty space.

The surprise that Chi Xingyue gave was also successfully discovered by Cui Wan'er.

The Cui family looked at the golden beans on the table with an expression of disbelief.

Cui Wan'er said excitedly, "Dad, Mom, Brother, let's go to the county tomorrow to buy some coarse grains to store for the winter!"

Cui's father and mother naturally had no objection. Cui Shouqing gave a thumbs up and said, "Wan'er is so lucky!"

I wonder what Chi Xingyue would think if he knew that the space upgrade happened at the same time as Cui Wan'er picked up the golden beans.

All I can say is that she fell asleep and missed the opportunity just right.

He slept until dawn. After eating, Chi Xingyue asked Erzhu, Ling Yi and others to come and move things.

After moving all the valuables and things that could get dirty in the house into the side room, he went to the foot of the mountain with Ling Jiheng.
